Magic Tips Best Bets
Race 1: NAZARETH (1)
Jockey: Samuel MOSIA - Trainer: Paul PETER
NAZARETH ran a good race when finishing second over 1450m on the Inside course at Turffontein. She set the pace that day but was outrun in the latter stages. The manner in which she races suggests that the drop in trip will not pose an issue. Samuel Mosia does duty this afternoon and she may be hard to peg back in the run down to the wire.
TOP BET FOR TODAY
Race 2: CURIOUS (1)
Jockey: S'manga KHUMALO - Trainer: Alec LAIRD
CURIOUS ran a very good race when finishing second, just a neck behind the winner over this distance on the Inside course at Turffontein last time. He set the pace that day and may have cost himself winning as he shifted away from the crop. The son of Elusive Fort jumps from pole position this afternoon and may be the one to side with.
Race 7: ELUSIVE FORCE (3)
Jockey: Luke J FERRARIS - Trainer: Paul PETER
ELUSIVE FORCE has produced three good runs since winning her maiden race over this distance. She was running on well at the finish over this C&D last time and if repeating that effort today, she should take a power of beating. The daughter of Elusive Fort is having her peak run today and should be cherry-ripe.
Race 8: CATEGORY FOUR (7)
Jockey: Calvin HABIB - Trainer: Grant MAROUN
CATEGORY FOUR has not finished too far off the winner in his last three starts. He moved up like a winner in his last start but was caught in the shadow of the post. He has placed in his only attempt over this C&D and may be the one they all have to beat.
VALUE BET
Race 9: HEART OF A LEGEND (1)
Jockey: Philasande MXOLI - Trainer: Gokhan TERZI
HEART OF A LEGEND has some fair recent form to her credit. She has been taking on much stronger company in recent outings and takes a drop in class. She gets the services of 4kgs claiming apprentice Philasande Mxoli which will help her chances. She does have a wide draw to contend with, but she is likely to be switched off near the rear of the field and will be doing her best work up the straight.
